US airport TSA checkpoints face severe delays during a partial government shutdown as unpaid agents skip work, forcing travelers to arrive up to three hours early for flights.

Mass TSA callouts at select US airports during a government shutdown have created three-hour security delays, with more disruptions likely as agents miss paychecks during peak spring break travel.

Spring break travel combined with government shutdown caused multi-hour TSA security lines at Houston Hobby and New Orleans airports, while most other airports remained unaffected.
